Funguary Week 1- Celestial

Clavaria zollingeri is a brilliantly purple fungus that exists across the world and can usually be found hanging around mossy patches or by hardwood trees.

Getting in on #Funguary! Won't be able to do all of them but I can sure do a few. This one is Celestial + Mycena Subcyanocephala!

What do you think of people who enjoy creating/consuming darkfic (and related) without having been through similar experiences as depicted in the text/media itself? So, they enjoy it simply because it interests them, but obviously still are horrified by the discussed concepts irl. They just don't use it as a healing tool, per se?

I think that’s an extremely normal thing to do. The events we like to explore with our imagination often don’t have any sort of direct correlation with what we want to do or to occur IRL.

This ever-increasing demand that we justify our interaction with fanworks that include kinky or problematic-IRL themes with ‘coping’ or ‘healing’ has created a frankly dangerous pressure on queer fandomgoers. Nobody should feel compelled to disclose a history of trauma to justify their interest in dark or kinky themes, nor should people who lack such trauma feel guilty for consuming dark or kinky works.

(& frankly, I think the lives of most queer fandomgoers have been traumatic enough to explain the rather high interest in dark & kinky themes, even if none of the trauma has been ‘major’ for most of us. Capitalism is traumatic. Marginalization is traumatic. & if you feel like you need a reason to like something in fiction that would disturb you IRL, that should, imho, be reason enough.)

if you ever get mad at anything i say just remember i’m 5’3 and envision yourself putting me on top of the refrigerator. which i cannot come down from

Being a Renaissance noble sucks. My dad died, now the alchemist who was scamming him is trying to scam me, my wife is a teenager with cholera, and some heathens are translating the Bible into DUTCH.
